Alicante’s History and Highlights: Self-Guided Walking Tour

Despre activitate

What do a large catch of sardines, a princess, and a brave Welsh sailor have in common You’ll soon find out on this self-guided walking tour of Alicante, where the history and culture of this enchanting Mediterranean city come alive. Our adventure begins at the striking El Adivinador sculpture, something of an icon in the city, symbolising Alicante’s hopeful spirit. From there, you’ll walk through the picturesque Explanada de España, a promenade adorned with majestic palm trees and colourful mosaic tiles. I’ll show you key sites from the medieval era, like Alicante City Hall and Plaza Santa Faz. On the way, you’ll see the dramatic aftermath of the 1691 French Navy attack that left Alicante in ruins. We’ll pass the historic Basilica Santa Maria, and you’ll have a chance to dive into the Central Market’s noise and array of sights and smells. This tour offers an engaging blend of history, culture, and local allure, making Alicante an unforgettable travel destination
